Sorry for the poor picture, yet I think wing venation can still be seen reasonably well. Body length ca. 2.5 mm

Is this venation compatible with some Milichiidae ?

The wing looks like Phytomyzinae: anterior veins shifted forward, posterior veins faint, dm-cu absent or retracted, Sc faint but separated from R1.
